Nyanchama kicked off her winning streak on Monday at Malindi Golf Club, where she triumphed with an impressive score of 78 gross, setting the tone for what would become a remarkable run.
However, she faced tough competition at the Vipingo Leg on Tuesday, where she finished fourth.
The home player, Naomi Wafula, took the top spot with a score of 73 gross, followed by Tanzanian golfer Neema Olomi with 78 gross, and Esther Chumo with 79 gross.
On Thursday, at Diamonds Leisure Beach and Golf Resort, Olomi once again emerged victorious, winning the title with a score of 78 gross on countback, edging out Nyanchama, who also finished with a score of 78 gross.
Undeterred, Nyanchama bounced back on Friday, claiming victory at the historical Mombasa Golf Club with an impressive score of 75 gross, securing the Mombasa Leg of the Ladies Coast Open series.
Her crowning achievement came on Saturday at Nyali Golf and Country Club, where she once again demonstrated her dominance by winning the Nyali Leg with a stunning score of 73 gross.
